Best Public Schools in Zip Code 39092


Summary:

The 39092 zip code area is home to 3 schools - Lake Elementary School, Lake Middle School, and Lake High School, all part of the Scott County School District. While the elementary and middle schools in this area are standout performers, consistently ranking in the top quartile of Mississippi schools, the high school lags behind in several subject areas.

Lake Elementary School and Lake Middle School excel, with strong proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics that exceed district and state averages. Both schools serve a high-need student population, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. In contrast, Lake High School struggles, with proficiency rates below the district and state in several subject areas.

The schools in this area share similar funding, with spending per student ranging from $7,510 to $8,703, in line with or slightly above the state average. The student-teacher ratios are also relatively low, suggesting an equitable distribution of resources. However, the extremely high free/reduced lunch rates across all 3 schools point to significant economic challenges faced by the community. Investigating the factors behind the success at the elementary and middle school levels and leveraging those best practices could help drive improvement at the high school.
